One day I will write extensively about London weather, or rather the interesting relationship the English have to English weather. Today I am just enjoying another one of those glorious summer days we’ve had this year, hot afternoons that simply scream of cooling lemonades. I usually just wing it, here I paid attention as the proportions seemed just right.
4 lemons
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
Large sprig of fresh mint
Ice cubes
Sparkling water
Juice the lemons. Pour the juice into a large jug over a few handfuls of ice cubes. Add the sugar and stir until it’s completely dissolved. Add the mint and give it a swirl.
Pour the juice into each individual glass to about a third full and top up with sparkling water.
